Résumé
The lack of direct evidence is an important problem faced in the formation of recommendations in rapid living guidelines of traditional Chinese medicine under public health emergencies, and the supplementation of indirect evidence can be a key method to solve this problem. For the collection of evidence, the type of evidence required, including direct and indirect evidence, should be clarified, and ‘direct first’ principle for selecting evidence can be set to standardize and accelerate the guideline development. When integrating evidence, recommendations can be formed directly if there is sufficient direct evidence, while regarding insufficient direct evidence, recommendations need to be supplemented and improved by integrating indirect evidence. In addition, when the body of evidence contains evidence from multiple sources, it is suggested to rate the evidence according to “higher rather than lower” principle. Finally, when forming recommendations, the level of evidence, safety and economic efficiency should be taken into consideration to determine the strength of the recommendation.
Résumé
In developing rapid and living guidelines of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in response to public health emergencies, it is important that evidence continue to be reviewed, and clinical questions and recommendations updated if necessary, due to the rapid changes in disease progression and the continuous generation of relevant research evidence. This paper proposed that the updating scope in dynamic mode should first be identified; then evidence monitoring should be carried out in four aspects, including clinical research, related guidelines or laws and regulations, disease progression, as well as clinical use of recommendations and clinical needs; finally, based on the results of the evidence monitoring, different options should be made, including revising the clinical questions, updating the evidence and recommendations, and withdrawing the guideline.
Résumé
The irrational use of Chinese patent medicines (CPM) is becoming more and more prominent, which makes the demand for clinical practice guidelines of CPM gradually increase. In order to make domestic scholars understand the latest developments and existing problems of the CPM guidelines, and promote its development, this paper introduced the concept of CPM guidelines, summarized the characteristics of the two development modes, namely “taking CPM as the key” and “taking disease/syndrome as the key”, and analyzed the current methodological status of developing and reporting CPM guidelines. Based on the existed problems, three suggestions have been put forward to optimize the quality of CPM guidelines, which were clarifying the target users and scope of CPM guidelines, establishing an open and transparent mechanism of the personnel involvement and process steps, and formulating implementable and operable recommendations for the use of CPM.
Résumé
This paper summarized the key points and methods in terms of the establishment of the guideline working group and the management of conflict of interests, trying to provide reference for the development of clinical practice guidelines for Chinese patent medicine (CPM). The establishment of the working group is the first important step for developing CPM guidelines. Considering the characteristics of the clinical practice guidelines for CPM, this study suggests that the three key elements of ‘multidisciplinarity’, ‘clinical relevance’ and ‘geographical representativeness’ should be put focus on when forming the working group. The guideline advisory committee, clinical expert group, evidence systematic evaluation group, secretary group and the external review group should be established. All group members should clarify the conflict of interest, and the process and management method of the conflict of interest should be clearly reported.

Especially, it details the items related to the rules and regulations of the use of CPMs in the recommendations, which is helpful for improving the completeness, scientificity and practicality of the reporting of CPMs guideline.
Résumé
Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of a single hydrogen-methane breath test (SHMBT) for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).Method:The current investigation was a cross-sectional study. Questionnaires and SHMBTs were administered to 162 patients with gastrointestinal symptoms (case group) and 69 healthy volunteers (control group). Differences in SHMBT results between the two groups were assessed,and cut-off values of CH 4 (methane) and H 2 (hydrogen) were analyzed via receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Lastly,archived SHMBT data from 2 655 patients with gastrointestinal symptoms (validation set) were used to evaluate the diagnostic value of the SHMBT with respect to SIBO. The Chi-square test,the Mann-Whitney U test,Spearman′s Rank correlation analysis,and the Z test were used for statistical analysis. Results:Based on the international recommended diagnostic criteria for SIBO,which are fasting CH 4 ≥10 ppm (parts per million) or H 2 ≥20 ppm,the SHMBT-positive rate in the case group was significantly higher than that of control group (35.2% vs. 21.7%, χ2=4.08, P=0.043). Levels of CH 4 and H 2 were higher in the case group than in the control group [CH 4: 3(2,7) vs. 3(1,3) ppm, H 2: 11(4,22) vs. 10(5,15) ppm],and the difference in CH 4 levels was statistically significant ( Z=6.22, P=0.001). ROC curves were generated based on whether the subjects had gastrointestinal symptoms. The areas under the ROC curves were 0.633 for CH 4 alone,0.531 for H 2 alone, and 0.620 for CH 4 combined with H 2. The cut-off values were fasting CH 4≥4 ppm,fasting H 2≥13 ppm,and fasting CH 4 ≥5 ppm (or CH 4≥4 ppm and H 2≥24 ppm),respectively. Measuring CH 4 alone and CH 4 combined with H 2 was effective for determining the presence of gastrointestinal symptoms ( P<0.05). When CH 4 alone or CH 4 combined with H 2 were used as diagnostic indicators of SIBO, the respective SHMBT-positive rates in the validation set were 34.2% and 30.4%. These rates did not significantly differ from the SIBO-positive rate of 32.0% obtained via the international recommended diagnostic criteria ( P>0.05). The specificity of CH 4 alone was 79.9%,and the accuracy of CH 4 alone was 68.8%. The specificity of CH 4 combined with H 2 was 85.0%,and the accuracy of CH 4 combined with H 2 was 71.7%. Conclusion:Rapid one-time determination of CH 4 and H 2 in exhaled breath may a viable diagnostic method for SIBO, and using CH 4 combined with H 2 ( i.e.,fasting CH 4≥5 ppm, or CH 4 ≥4 ppm and H 2 ≥24 ppm) as cutoff values may be feasible.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of raw and wine-processed Schisandra chinensis on neuro-immune-endocrine network in insomnia mice and its mechanism. METHODS Fifty mice were randomly divided into blank group, model group, diazepam group, raw S. chinensis group and wine-processed S. chinensis group, with 10 mice in each group. Except for blank group, the mice in the other groups were intraperitoneally injected with thyroxine solution to establish mice model of insomnia; at the end of each day’s modeling, the corresponding doses of diazepam,raw and wine-processed S. chinensis were given by gavage. The blank group and model group were given constant volume of normal saline. The general state of the mice was observed and recorded, and the total activity distance and upright times of the mice were detected; the EEG and EMG signals of mice were recorded, and the time ratio of sleep wake time (wake), non-rapid eye movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM) was analyzed; the contents of neurotransmitters [γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), dopamine (DA), norepinephrine (NE), cortisol (CORT)] in brain suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) were detected; and the expressions of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and interleukin 1β (IL-1β) were detected; the mRNA expressions of clock gene Bmal1, circadian clock gene Clock and cycle gene Per2 were all detected. RESULTS Compared with the blank group, the mental state of the model group mice was relatively depressed, the amount of food and water increased, the body mass decreased, the hair was rough and shiny, and the circadian rhythm was irregular; the total activity distance and upright times decreased significantly; the time ratio of wake increased significantly, while the time ratios of REM and NREM decreased significantly; the content of 5- HT in brain SCN decreased significantly, while the content of NE, DA and CORT increased significantly; the fluorescence intensity of IL-1β and TNF-α was significantly increased; the relative expression level of Bmal1 and Clock mRNA was significantly increased, while the relative expression level of Per2 mRNA was significantly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the general state of mice in diazepam group, raw S. chinensis group and wine-processed S. chinensis group was improved obviously, and most of the above index levels were significantly reversed (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Raw and wine-processed S. chinensis have a certain therapeutic effect on insomnia mice, the mechanism of which may be related to the regulation of neuro-endocrine-immune system related biological indicators in insomnia mice.
Résumé
Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in the digestive system, with high morbidity and mortality. Early clinical symptoms of GC are not obvious, and most of them have entered the advanced stage after discovery, which greatly reduces the clinical cure rate and affects the quality of life of patients, and the prognosis is very poor. In recent years, with the continuous exploration in the field of bioinformatics, it has been found that micro-RNA (miRNA) and long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) exist as non-coding RNA (ncRNA) without translation ability, and regulate the expression levels of related signal proteins by acting on a certain target, thereby activating or inhibiting a certain signaling pathway, which plays an important role in assisting diagnosis, guiding clinical medication, and judging prognosis in the progress of GC. Chinese medicine is easily accepted by patients because of its good curative effect and less side effects. In the present basic studies, with the interaction mechanism between miRNA, lncRNA and signaling pathways as the breakthrough point, various studies on the regulation of related signaling molecules and signaling pathways by Chinese medicine have been carried out. A large number of experimental data have proved that the development of GC is closely related to the interaction of miRNA, lncRNA, and related signaling pathways, and Chinese medicine, with multi-target, multi-mechanism, and multi-pathway characteristics, affects various signaling molecules and signaling pathways and intervenes in the progress of GC cells. This paper reviewed the basic research on lncRNA, miRNA molecules, and main signaling pathways involved in the occurrence and development of GC, and summarized specific molecular mechanisms of Chinese medicine in the regulation of each signaling pathway, hoping to provide references for modern research of Chinese medicine in the intervention of GC progress at the molecular level.
Résumé
WHO Guideline on Country Pharmaceutical Pricing Policies,published in 2020,outlines 10 commonly used pricing methods internationally.However,due to the unique composition of costs for traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),directly applying pricing methods designed for chemical and biological drugs may lead to discrepancies.Currently,in China,drug pricing primarily in-volves internal reference pricing,tender negotiation pricing,promoting the use of quality-assured generic and biosimilar drugs,and centralized procurement.It systematically analyzes various pricing methods and identifies their applicability and underlying reasons concerning the pricing of TCMwithin the medical insurance system.The method of value-based pricing and increasing price transparency has advantages for the pricing regulation of traditional Chinese medicine under medical insurance.
Résumé
Objective:To quantify any correlation between the severity of spinal curvature of an adolescent with idiopathic scoliosis and their cardiopulmonary exercise endurance.Methods:The cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) results and the full-length spinal X-rays in a standing position of 64 adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis were reviewed retrospectively. Independent t-tests were used to compare the two datasets obtained from those with left or right thoracic scoliosis. The correlation between the Cobb angle and cardiopulmonary exercise endurance was analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficients, multiple factor linear regression and two-stage linear regression.Results:After adjusting for gender, age, height and weight, the multiple linear regression analysis showed that the Cobb angle was significantly negatively correlated with maximum tidal volume (β=-0.013) and significantly positively correlated with the rate of respiration (β=0.421). The relationship between the Cobb angle and cardiopulmonary exercise endurance was non-linear. With a Cobb angle > 34°, a 1° increase reduces cardiopulmonary exercise endurance by a factor of 1.4 on average. At smaller Cobb angles the corresponding increase is about 0.87 times.Conclusions:The Cobb angle is a negative predictor of ventilation during exercise among adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis. The more severe a patient′s spinal curvature, the lower the cardiopulmonary exercise endurance is likely to be.

A total of 265 patients were evaluable followed up for 12-24 months, Objective cure rate and subjective cure rate were achieved in 95.8%(254 cases) and 93.6%(248 cases) respectively. POP was cured in 96.8% patients.Postoperative complications were 10.6% groin pain, 4.5% urgency, others including urinary tract infection(3.4%), de novo dysuresia(2.6%), dyspareunia(1.1%), and one case of bladder injury, one case sling erosion and one case scar hyperplasia.Conclusions:Female stress urinary incontinence were mainly in middle-aged and elderly people who had severely psychological quality of life lasting for several years. TVT-O may achieve a high success or improvement rate and no serious adverse effects. One operation could correct the stress urinary incontinence and simultaneously correct prolapse.
Résumé
Hypoparathyroidism is a rare endocrine disease with abnormal calcium and phosphorus metabolism. It is mainly characterized by hypocalcemia,hyperphosphatemia,and with or without decreasing of the parathyroid hormone (PTH). The current standard treatment for hypoparathyroidism includes calcium and vitamin D. Calcium and vitamin D can correct hypocalcemia, but it is not easy to maintain the balance of calcium and phosphorus. PTH hormone replacement therapy has made adequate progress and may become a treatment option for patients with hypoparathyroidism. This review is trying to introduce the progress in PTH hormone replacement therapy.

BACKGROUND:Epimedium has been used in the treatment of osteoporosis and repair of bone defects. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of epimedium on the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. METHODS:A database search was performed to retrieve literatures addressing epimedium effects on the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Then, the papers meeting the criteria were selected for in-depth analysis. During the osteogenic differentiation induced by epimedium, alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, osteopontin, transforming growth factorβ, bone morphogenetic proteins, osteocalcin, bone sialoprotein were detected in the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells to understand the underlying mechanism of epimedium in proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Epimedium effects on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are shown in a dose-dependent manner. During the early induction, icari n can increase cellphosphatase activity;in the late induction, icari n can increase calcified nodules, promote osteocalcin secretion, significantly improve the expressions of transforming growth factorβ1, bone morphogenetic protein 2, insulin-like growth factor-1, osteopontin and bone sialoprotein. Epimedium, which can be used as an excellent osteoinductive factor, improves the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
